Hi guys,

Does somebody know if there is a Ninjatrader indicator or strategy available that gives an alert when an instrument moves an X amount of ticks in an X amount of time?

Many thanks,

Sandor

What kind of alert: a sound, a popup window, ... ?

A sound would be best but if there is something available with a popup window, I would be very happy too.

Thanks a lot!

Here is a skeleton then:

 

Code

... private int window = 10;  private int moveLength = 5; ... protected override void OnBarUpdate() {    if ( (CurrentBar > window) && (!Historical)) {       if (Range()[window] > moveLength)         PlaySound(Cbi.Core.InstallDir.ToString()+"\\sounds\\Beep.wav");       }    } }

Can you elaborate on your skeleton code?

Input tick size
Current Bar is X tick size
then draw vertical or highlight paint bar and alert with window
This is for either Up or Down tick size
Not based on time, just tick size
